Also, what would you guys think about a 2004 FX4 Screw with leather seats and 4X4? I've seen them around 12k about 300miles from me

Do you really want to finance a truck with 160k for 3-6 years?

He said he saved up $12k, so I think he's buying cash

Think about how many miles your going to drive in the next 3-4 yrs. 160,000 isn't bad if your driving 15,000 a year. If you plan on driving 30,000 mi then a truck with 250 on it might not be a good investment. BTW, if you get a good one it'll go to 200 no sweat.

Yes, I have saved up $12k cash.... No need for financing. I'd be driving 7500- 10,000 a year... This seller says it is religiously maintained..... Oasis report.... Price? What do they check for?

Nice truck, but I could easily find a supercrew FX4 with 120k miles for $12,000. But I live in Texas, so the trucks are probably cheaper here
